hey @Xulfiqar guru so i have just bought this 1,50,000 km driven 2001 7th gen civic vti overall its a clean ride but the previous owner has been a miser dude who stuck to basic maintenance like mobilail tabdeeli and replaced replaced pichle wala coil spring shaaks " so i want you to list me a list of items i need to check and replace to make the car a safe ride
also the car is averaging just fine should i take a panga by getting the throttle body cleaned and the ide has this issue with power steering makes this gurr gurr noise eats up steering fluid at times aswell should i take the burden of finding another replacement assembly from kabli scrappy else go for the EPS setup and if i do would that require any aaaltration also the abs light keeps randomly blinking and at times the abs pumps starts to pump up
anways list of itms what i think i should get checked

timing belt , break pads , break fluid pipes , fuel filter ,

awaiting response

i just disassembled an fpr that was sending too much fuel back. It had a bad O ring. Now i need a new fuel resistant O ring. Would you have any idea what kind of shops keep those.

The o ring is the smallest one in the pic

You can purchase an O-ring kit for now and future use.

[margallar]

is the kit a common item at hardware stores or do i have to visit some sort of specialist

I knew the place in karachi, cant say about lahore, Im sure you can find this O ring in carburettor overhaul kits too.

Thanks alot, also can u help me in making sure that is there any difference in ECU pinouts of USDM and AUDM?
In USDM the speedometer is on CAN and in AUDM the BCM and TCM is on CAN as suggested by an electrician. I have the pinouts for USDM but seems a little difference like in USDM A/C switch has no pinouts but only 3 pinouts for Pressure Switch. Here is the engine picture I had swap in my B12 and it comes in Austrailian Nissan Pulsar 2004.

I'm not xulfiqar, but i must say baleno is a great car. The suspension and ac is better than the usual suzuki standard. Body must be good, engine can always be sorted

I just recalled seeing a parts shop selling these from a kit they had...i will try them, similar size is used under margalla accelerator pump nozzle

@Xulfiqar bhai, the car is 2003 2.0D saloon, used to jump another car this morning. tonight about two hours ago, I tried to start it and twisted the key to on positio there were relay clicking like sounds from glovebox (probably where interior fuse box is), optitron meter, audio system and all lights except airbag light went out. It didn't start and self starter fainted after trying 3 times, heater light came on for 2 times but off instantaneously then didn't come on again. the only electric accessory working are headlights (not parking lamps even).

What could be the cause?

I believe karma is hitting me as I planned to take out a fuse or two to avoid reaching a family gathering a few days ago but didn't touch anything only not even the fuse box cover.
